Slush 2026 will take place on November 18 and 19, 2026 at the Helsinki Expo and Convention Center in Helsinki, Finland. The two‑day, not‑for‑profit summit will bring together a curated crowd of European early‑stage startups, world‑class investors, tech journalists and ecosystem builders.

In 2026, the organizers plan to reduce the audience size by 10% to sharpen the focus on core, early‑stage companies and to deliver a more segmented experience that matches each startup’s growth stage through personalized recommendations.
